It's like that stuffed cow couldn't be more pleased at the latest iternation of Harvest Moon, this time where you get to play AS the cattle.

I skipped the bulk of the article because I wanted to make sure that I didn't pick up spoilers from the game proper, which I plan on picking up as soon as I get money on PSN. So I'll talk about this topic more broadly.

It's Gratuitous Space Battles, but in the Ocean! And with better graphics too.

If the soundtrack is nothing but Jazz, this'll be the Game of the decade.

I always feel like the characters in this game were supposed to be over-the-top charicatures of what we usually see in video games, (I get that feeling from Fighter, Dwarf, Sorceress, and Amazon) but then at some point the designers got bored and phoned in the Elf and the Wizard.

It's not just that, people who grew up playing D&D from the start are also getting older and bringing more people into the fold.

Oh man, TV on my Xbox means I can watch TV on my Computer Monitor!

I'd still need all the other things, but at least I can jurry-rig something up and not have to buy an HDTV for a little while. Kinda Exciting.

I wonder if I can also output my PC to my theoretical future Xbox?

Man this console season is shaping up to be…

Society of the Spectacle.

MORE THEME WEEKS!

Mass Effect Week is a great start, but I'd love to see more weeks that talk about some of your (and our!) favorite games!

And Card Games, and RPGs!

Gaming as an identity is an intersectionality of different groups, some of us only play shooters, others like to command the battlefield in strategy games. Folks love to play RPGs, but some people exclusively Role Play at the kitchen table with dice and friends.

Awesome! Do we know how much it'll cost? I have to work on a budget, and I'll totally make room for this.

I LOVE THIS IDEA!

Mass Effect Week seems super great, and I look forward to other weeks like X-Com, Fir Emblem, and other games that the Kotaku staff love!

But the exposition makes it Pro Wrestling!!!!

This show is so wonderfully over the top, that without the exposition, it would be a relentless assault on the sense, and it would be too much. Heads would explode!

It's a lot like WWE in that regard, you have these hyper-masculine men sizing each other up and talking for…

WOW! That's some of the most flippant responses to legit consumer complaints.

Especially since he's totally blind to those less privileged than him. As a combo-game device/media extender/DVD player, consoles like the PS3 and Xbox360 are attractive purchases for lower-income families since they're able to serve…

Though the idea of modding duck hunt's dog to be Hugo Chaves in a Mexican Sombrero killed me. (I'd rather the ducks be modded to TIE Fighters though.)

It also shoots darts, and is a grappling hook. (Though that could be on the other wrist.)

:(

I was mostly just criticizing the perspective of the article. Hopefully those people aren't unemployed for too long.

150 people are now out of work and the benefit touted by this article is a theoretically better digital circus for us to consume.

Which means that Star Wars will become a licensed IP, with different publishers and developers fighting for a piece of the Star Wars pie.

This probably makes Disney more money in a less risky way than just having its own development studio since it just takes money up front from other people and just has them go about…

Blizzard's upcoming Hearthstone, and even TCGs like Magic already have that model.
